2026/07/06

Whether you've never been off-road before or you're just getting started, Jimmy and Tyler break down the 10 most important things they wish someone had told them early on — all vehicle-focused, all hard-earned from real experience on real trails. This one came from a simple question: what do we actually say when we're out on the trail with a first-timer? Not camping tips, not gear tips — how do you drive differently when the ground stops being flat? The list covers the two biggest safety

Snail Trail 4x4 Offroad Podcast ·

2026/06/29

A listener asked about power systems, so Jimmy and Tyler break down every option: dual battery AGM, single and dual lithium, power stations, and the hybrid setups that combine them. Covers why lead acid batteries don't belong in an off-road vehicle, why AGM never delivers its full rated capacity, why lithium gets you roughly double the usable power in the same size battery, and where AGM still wins (cold weather, sustained winching). Plus a breakdown of power station tech, and a $5,000 RedArc system

It's ICECO Month, and they brought in the right guy for it. David from ICECO says that after COVID changed everything. Like a lot of people, he went outside, went wheeling, and ended up pivoting his whole career around it. Now he's working with a brand that started in OEM refrigeration — manufacturing the internals that go inside other companies' products — before expanding into the outdoor and overlanding space. That OEM history matters because it's where the technology comes from. ICECO runs SECOP

Jimmy and Tyler are back from very different weekends that somehow both ended the same way: hanging out with people you don't see enough, doing stuff you love, and getting home before dark. Tyler took his toddler, Reid, out on the Rubicon for the first time, joining the Mad Hatters' annual run at Loon. The trip came with an unexpected education: when you normally run sweep, you get out at every stop and help people. When you're strapped to the car with a two-year-old, you're sitting in the

The short version: the National Forest Service is being restructured in a way that removes local regional offices. The closest regional office for El Dorado National Forest, Tahoe National Forest, and Stanislaus National Forest is now in Salt Lake City. That means people who have never set foot on our trails are

The Sphere gets a full breakdown — the way the seats actually rumble, why the general admission floor might be the worst seat in the house, how the venue works as both a concert and a movie at the same time, and the weight-based checkout technology that somehow knew exactly what he grabbed off the shelf. After the show, he wandered through the Venetian into a piano bar and ordered what he describes as the worst
